Heres my Trev!! Was told he was a Rotweiiler cross Dobermann. Now not so sure. Looks like a black and tan labrador to me!! Depends on what angle you catch him at as to what he looks like!! My other half thinks he's rotty cross GSD!! What do you think?!

does he like carrying things around in his mouth ??
LOL! Yes, usually your hand!!!! He likes to have your hand in his mouth alot! He chews loads on his bones and he's very 'vocal' (he grumbles and whines)bur as far as carrying things around goes, not really!

Some more pics

LOL! Yes! Mind you, he steals any item of clothing you leave lying around!

We are training him at the minute and he's really clever but can be stubborn. He's also very protective of me and my son (not my boyfriend though!!). He's a very dominant dog so we are constantly battling to keep him in check but even with that, he's a real babe!!

Edited to add - Bravo, I know what you mean about the dogs head being solid! Trev keeps nutting me by accident! Bloody huts no end!!

Cool

There's definitely Doberman in him, look at the gangly legs, and the ears look just like my friends dobeys. If you want their ears to stick up like you see in films, you have to pin them.

Cris, the ears need to be cut for them to stick up, and yes it is totally illegal in the UK to carry out this practice, even an imported dog with cut ears can't be shown in the UK.

Well what a poser - '...and straight down the lens honey'!

I reckon there is a bit ot Rottie there you know - the mouth and the tan markings? Must have been a black lab in there too?

Red,

There is definately Rottie in there - can see it in the skull structure.

A lab/dobie cross would have a much narrower head and more pointed nose as labs have narrower heads than rotties.

the ears are pure rottie, but a little large in relation to the head size.

Long legs suggest dobie, attitude suggests rottie..LOL...

So I'd say he's a rottie/dobie cross as you originally thought.

Anyway, here's the definative test.

Does he steal socks?

LOL

Oh, and the way his ears sit straight out from his head, not drooping like the labs is definately rottie.
